- Abstract
Misbehaviour entails any student behaviour that diminishes the teacher’s ability to achieve and maintain efficient learning in the classroom. In order to secure efficient teaching and student learning, teachers apply various strategies and procedures whereby they react to student misbehaviour and prevent its reoccurrence. The goal of this research was to examine the strategies and procedures primary school teachers use and whether class and subject teachers differ in their implementation. The research included 230 primary school teachers who assessed the frequency of applying 30 procedures in dealing with three different forms of student misbehaviour. The results show that most teachers encounter mild and moderate forms of misbehaviour on a daily basis, whereas they are rarely faced with severe forms of misbehaviour. The most frequently used strategies for amending mild student misbehaviour are agreements with students, positive actions and reprimand, while in cases of moderate and severe student misbehaviour, most common strategies entail agreement, reprimand and expert counselling. The least frequently used strategies for coping with all three forms of student misbehaviour are punishment and excluding students from class. Statistically significant differences were found in the application of the strategies between class and subject teachers. Class teachers more often use strategies of agreement, positive action, engaging students in other activities and involving peers, whereas subject teachers use the strategy of expert counselling more frequently. Although excluding students from class is rarely applied, it was still found that this strategy is more often used by subject teachers.
